GLOVE ATTACHMENT.

T all whom it may concern;

Be it known that I, GEORGE A. Moss, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of San Francisco and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Glove Attachments, of which the following is a specification.

The present invention relates to certain new and useful improvement in the glove the securing members, in the same horizontal plane. In practical use, a decided objection was found to exist in connection with the mentioned patented glove attachment, one which decidedly reduced the value of the device, the said objection being brought about as follows: The securing members of the attachment being connected by a straight plate and lying in substantially the same horizontal plane, the strains placed on the wrist sections of the glove when united by the said glove attachment, depressed the end of the connecting plate carrying the spring stud member of the at tachment, which elevated the opposite end of the plate carrying the securing buttoneyelet and caused the overlapping wrist section of the glove to assume a position at an upward inclination, instead of lying against the wrist of the wearer of the glove, thereby creating the appearance of an ill fitting glove. It is this objection or defect which the present invention is designed to overcome.

To comprehend the invention reference Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed May 14, 1908.

, should be had to the accompanying sheet of drawings, wherein Figure 1 is an enlarged broken sectional view illustrating the wrist sections of a glove united by means of the improved attachment. Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of the attachment. Fig. 3 is a detail view of the connecting plate for the securing members.

In the drawings, the numerals 1 and 2 are used to designate the wrist sections of an ordinary spring clasp button glove, of which the wrist section 2 is the overlapping section. To the section 1 is attached the spring stud member 3 of the spring clasp button, and to the wrist section 2 is secured the embracing button-eyelet member 4: of the said spring clasp button.

The improved glove attachment, which is utilized in cases where the wrist sections of the glove cannot be properly united owing to the size of the wrist of the wearer thereof, comprises a spring stud 5, which engages with the embracing button-eyelet member 1 carried by the wrist-section 2 of the glove, and an embracing button-eyelet 6, which engages with the spring stud member 3 carried by the wrist section 1 of the glove. The attaching members 5 and 6 are connected or united by the plate 7, having horizontally supporting parts at adjacent ends the central portion 8 of which is bent down wardly at an inclination to the horizontal, so as to place the spring stud. 5 and the embracing button-eyelet '6, carried thereby, in different horizontal planes. By thus locating the said securing members for the wrist sections of the glove in different horizontal planes, the throwing of the overlapping section 2 of the wrist sections of the glove upwardly at an incline is overcome, and the objection urged against the value of this class of glove attachments is removed.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is for the stud, a longitudinally extending sup- In testimony whereof I have signed my porting part for the eyelet, and a transname to this specification in the presence of versely extending part for connecting said two subscribing witnesses.
